    My car is an LS swap with a custom plug and play BP Automotive harness that has been sitting around for years.

Started with the prime connector by the PCM under the hood, then the connector under the dash on the PS, relay, and started probing the gray wires in the Racetronix hotwire harness. I even probed the pump itself after ripping it out of the tank. $150 later, a new pump fixed it, but all of the testing was necessary due to all of the aftermarket components. Not too relevant to this thread, but feel free to check out my build thread if you're interested.
    I love the build thread. I'm actually doing an LS swap also, just going to a carburetor and powerglide since my plan for the car is 90% track now. We swapped my old LT1/4L60e into another 94 z28 for my dad. We are finally getting all the little bugs worked out of it, so I finally have time to focus on my build. I should've made a build thread for mine. It is getting a complete makeover with body work, new paint and new motor/trans.

    This is where I am right now. So much work ahead of me! Breaks my heart seeing the old girl like this.

    One day soon I'm going to take a day to clean my shop, sorry for the mess, haha.

    Another question while I have your attention: For the starter solenoid, can I use the factory wire and just bypass the security relay behind the glove box?

    Just pull the connector off the theft deterrent relay, connect the yellow wire to the purple wire. The theft deterrent relay and the hatch release relay are all the way to the right, right side of airbag/glove box support. Don't confuse it with the theft deterrent module, which is between the radio and the left side air bag bracket.

    Also, I assume the Shoe Box manual fan switch diagram will work for me if I use the pcm controller wires and tap them into a keyed 12 volt source? Thanks again!

    You may want to determine if you have an "early 94" model year wiring setup (2 relays, fan #1 on/off; fan #2 on/off), or the "late 94" model year wiring (3 relays, Both fans on low/off; both fans on high/off). In either case, the dark green wire is the lower temp response and the dark blue wire is the higher temp response. Will this be a manual switch, or will you incorporate temperature sensor/switch control?

    Just a manual switch, or on all the time with the key on.

    There is a BP Auto swap harness for sale in the classifieds if you want to keep your electronics in tact and stay fuel injected. Just saying lol. Regardless, should be a fun project. Good luck.

    I know i know, lol. I went back and forth for a long time before making the decision. I hope I don’t regret the carb, but I’ve already bought it and everything to support it.

    I think I have 2 fan relays, but I will double check. What you’re saying is that either way the wiring is the same for a manual switch?

    Yes.

    I would recommend using a simple thermostatic switch so the only run when needed.

    I could wire the pcm control wires to a keyed 12 volt and use something like this on the ground side of the relay, correct? That, or ground the fans directly to the switch?

    I think I have a tapped hole in each head for temperature, so I could run this switch in 1 head and the gauge sender in the other.

    With the factory wiring, the control side of the relay is wired directly to a fuse (#6 under hood box) supplying ignition switched 12 volts.

    The PCM wire provides the ground to the control side of the relay.

    Connect the dark blue and dark green wires together, and run them to the thermo switch you linked. That switch activates the control side of all the relays by grounding the PCM wires to the head as a ground.

    In the early wiring diagram both fans will turn on at 185°. On the late wiring diagram both fans will turn on at high speed at 185°.
